Thx for the replies

Nice to hear, and read

And it's still good when used with a 2x TC ?
'cause that was the idea


How much do they cost from new, used ?

Well until now, anything above 200 is great

been using a cheap sigma 28 - 200, so anything sharper/longer will make me a happy man.

So if the 135-400 is sharper, I'll just sneak the last 100mm like a ninja in the dusk...

Hello

I want to buy a decent zoom, my main goal is arround 400mm but if the pentax is sharper/better then it'll do just fine.
I am considering these lenses, bacause it's what's possible to find on ebay.

I would like a bigma, but its not easy to find, and a bit expensive.
If any of you have other ideas to lenses in the range please let me know.

Anyone has some input into which is sharpest ?
(want to shoot birds and wildlife)

The 80-400 comes in a pentax mount:

80-400

after looking into it, I think you're right about the tokina 100-300 ..
